Winter Shirt Switcharoo

I don't
know how many of you actually do this, but being the cheapy girl that I am, I
do.

For a few
years now I have been cutting these kinds of sleeves off the kid’s shirts so they can wear them in the summer too.

I have to
admit sometimes I search for these types of shirts in the winter just so I can
get double use out of them ;)

Every
year we buy the kids these shirts that have the look of two shirts. You know the ones with a long sleeve shirt
under the short sleeve shirt.

Anyhoo if
you look under the sleeve of the shirt you will see a stitch that connects the
material together. This is great because
once you remove the long sleeve right under the short sleeve; you can't even
tell it was ever a long sleeve to begin with.

Now the
kids have summer shirts, and I get to save money.

I wonder, does anyone else do this? What are some ways you reuse clothes? I'm quit interested, maybe I can learn a thing or two :)
